Walking in a Winter Wonderland!

We spent my 39th birthday at the wonder that is Niagara Falls.  I will never tire of its beauty and I'm glad we took the opportunity to truly experience it during the winter.  The mist from the falls turns everything surrounding the falls into ice . . . the trees, the grass, the fences.  The result is something out of a movie.  It is truly breathtaking!

Butterfly Conservatory

We spent the afternoon at the Niagara Butterfly Conservatory . . . it was pretty amazing.  There were hundreds (thousands?) of butterflies and they definitely were not shy.  They landed on all of us!  I walked around with one on my head for about 5 minutes.  For me, it was a photo dream.  Here are my favorite photos from the afternoon:
